I love Horvat but I really do hope that the Canucks's fan base can simmer down their hopes. I just dont want all of these AGM fans to think they are getting a king's random then be dissapointed. These mock trades are absolute best case scenario for Vancouver. Is this value possible? Sure. But it is far more likely he goes for a trade like this but instead of Niemela, its a B-C prospect instead. Horvat has made it clear he does not intend to stay unless Vancouver goes up in their offer and the Canucks seem hesitant to do so, and if he heads to free agency he is going to get overpaid somewhere. IMO a more realistic mock would be:
2023 1st
2024 2nd
William Villeneuve
Rodion Amirov
This is just my guess. Could sub out Minten for Amirov, too.
